So far with the dsc off I've been good, it hasn't kicked on at all. With dsc off it goes off randomly while cornering. Sometimes the light doesn't even flash when it goes off. The oddest part is on the same road dif days it will sometimes go off sometimes not. Also by go off I mean the tc kicks in breaking one of the tires making a very odd buzzing sound, which must be the abs.

Alright nick, your **** is weak. Plus you need to proofread before you post. I figured my issue on the quicktime, I desperately needed an update. I also need to flip one of the videos upside down because when I filmed inside, it was upside down and I fubed the pooch. Does anyone know how to flip it?

Hey guys -

i was doin' a lil' lurking n' i rememberd that convo we were having about the ls2 coils vs bhr.

Here are some quotes taken from another thread for reference:

You'll need AP tune for better performance, .

Originally Posted by Charles R. Hill
It may seem counter-intuitive but the "truck coil" actually emits more voltage and current than the "Corvette" coil, and will do so through over 9,000 rpms. The tuning we have been alluding to refers to the dwell settings.
Originally Posted by Charles R. Hill
That is correct and each coil emits different voltage/amperage.


Originally Posted by olddragger
it is well known in the modified engine world that the "yukon" ( BHR's) coil is the most powerful ignition coil that is mass produced for an american car. People have used these coils on engine builds that go well over 1000hp. The heat sink on the coil is especially helpful for us also.
The beauty of the BHR kit is you dont have to worry about proper connectors ( and that means a LOT), building your on wires which a lot of people really dont know how to do properly, or getting a proper p&p harness.
Never buy an ignition coil off ebay--you dont know what you are getting. Been there, done that ( not this engine)
Sure there are other coil packs available, multiple ones in fact but I would like to offer a little advice from a guy that has made a lot of mistakes with his engines over the past 8 yrs. If you want upgraded coils the BHR kit is the best kit out there.

well good thing geoff got the same coils bhr uses and I'm going to buy the msd's. Plus with all the connectors, I found the right ones for a decent price while I was working, and I don't sit at a computer all day. Thanks for that though.

I know a couple of good spots in HB, sunset beach, newport beach n' santa monica (if you wanna go up that far).
